These cars have a CAN system and almost anything from a sunroof control module to a door control module to a software update can cause ALL of these problems. Unfortunately 99's and 00's are the years that exibit these problems most often. There may even be a shorted wire under the driver's seat. Good luck and please find someone you trust as the explanation may seem like it does not make sense.

I would start by calling the police.They may or may not direct you to a lawyer but most states have what is called a 30 day lemon law for occassions such as this,even if the car was sold 'As is'.If you can notice it,with them being so-called certified mechanics or sales people,they surely were aware of some problem.Even if they say there is nothing they can do,just mention a lawyer even if you have not consulted one yet as they may change their mind quickly.If they do nothing,a lawyer will usually at least give a free consult about what path to take.If a lawyer does get involved and you end up winning,I can almost guarantee that the shop will be paying for YOUR lawyer too.A good idea to do first also would be to google lemon laws to familiarize yourself regarding the terms.It may also list when it applies and for what situations.Wrong is wrong.Call the media.Some channels have consumer lawyers which help people in your situation.Make it known to them if you do contact a channel that there needs to be urgency due to time restrictions.I would make this situation sopublicized,it would drive them out of business.Please let me know how you do and if this helps in any way.Just reply here and i will get an autolink to your post.Good luck!

sorry that you feel that way about your torrent, but its very possible that its a lemon, go the lemon law way with this torrent if possible, because if its dying like that its not safe!! only thing i could think of is the alternator could be bad, killing or damaging your battery.. sorry if this doesnt help, but hoping it does?

Are you the original buyer? If so I would have contacted nissan because most states have what is referred to as a lemon law. According to Statelawyers.com, Lemon Law refers to the statement from the government that was created to protect consumers from defects in automobile. An automobile that has manufacturing defect(s) or if it requires repeated repairs after purchase and if the automobile is under warranty period, such a vehicle is termed as a lemon.

A law was placed for the benefit of consumers to prevent them from a lemon vehicle. In a nut shell if any vehicle such as a car is under warranty period and is suffering from various defects that prevent a consumer to use the vehicle effectively then Lemon law act or the Magnuson Moss Act comes into force.

Lemon law can be enforced on any sort of vehicle like a car, truck, van, SUV, motorcycle, boat or computer, etc. If any of these consumer durables is found to be defective then the consumer is entitled for either money back, replacement or a cash settlement. The law can be consulted with a Lemon law attorney as various states have different lemon laws. Some states have a lemon law for only the automobiles but some also include other consumer durables like computers, etc.

A dealer or manufacturer should have made number of attempts to repair the vehicle before being declared as lemon. Usually three or more attempts in row over a short period of time are required for any vehicle to be termed as lemon. Lemon law is also applicable to vehicles which have been resold but are still under warranty and meet the mileage and time criteria. More often it is very difficult to persuade a manufacturer to accept a lemon vehicle. In such cases a lemon suit is often called for.

To ensure whether a vehicle is a lemon or not one should observe certain conditions of the vehicle before pursuing a lemon law suit. A vehicle should exhibit some serious defect or some abnormal condition. Such a condition should be covered by manufacturer's warranty. Number of attempts for repair should also be taken into account before preparing a lemon law suit. A written notice should have also been issued to the manufacturer prior to a lemon law suit.

A vehicle that has been bought back by the manufacturer from the customer is known as a Lemon Buy Back. Such lemon buy backs are often sold in auctions as used cars by the manufacturers.

The Lemon law enforced for protecting consumers from the lemon vehicles is Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. This lemon law states that any advertised guarantee should explicitly state relevant information about a warranty. This law ensures that any warranty for goods above $15 should be clearly expressed on the goods and should be clear and easy to understand. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty act enables a consumer to bring suit to any manufacturer, supplier, warrantor, or service contractor for any defective piece of good or services.

A lemon vehicle explicitly loses market value due to its manufacturing defect. Moreover, manufacturing defects may lead to several life threatening circumstances. It also substantially impedes a person's ability to control or operate a motor vehicle for ordinary use or intended purposes. Any manufacturing defect can also create a substantial risk of fire or explosion. All these risk elements call for enforcement of Lemon law in the states of United States. This law helps consumer from all such threats and hazardous circumstances.

Check the Lemon Laws on your car, seems something like 3 repairs for the same problem with no resolution... Go online or ask the dealer and also on the back of every repair invoice from a dealer it should give the regulations for resolution and Lemon Laws... hope this helps... or simply take it to a different dealer for inspection...

Yeah, it's called the "Lemon" law....take them to court or approach them first and give them a heads up of what you are about to do. Not a joke.....that is why the lemon law IS the lemon law to prevent business prractices like this.

check out the lemon laws in your state.... as well as asking to speak to the service manager about the issue. if that doesn't work ask to speak to the area rep for hyundai until you get this fix... keep records of what they have done and whom and what you have spoken to them about.
